Surprise! Skazz is gone, he left with one HELL of a bang, and the whole "I'm biased towards Skazz" argument can finally be put to rest.

I wanted to show Skazzatrazz in a different light than he was shown in SFC7. There he was the super-negative badass; here, he was the super-negative whiny failure. I also came up with the whole backstory about him blowing up his own home planet by accident and wanted to incorporate it.

The message I wanted to get across with Skazz here was that, just because you had a traumatic past doesn't mean you are automatically a good person who deserves forgiveness. Despite his past, it was noted that Skazz's treatment of everyone around him was completely uncalled for. And I kept comparing him to Maddie, who is actually a good person despite HER horrible past and has completely different, far more positive motivations behind her dubious behavior.

So yeah...to the haters, enjoy 10-plus episodes without Skazz. Because this episode ain't over yet.
